Duke Form
Duke enter this Final Four matchup on a dominant run of form, having won each of their previous 15 games.
The Blue Devils have not lost since February 8, when they were beaten 77-71 at Clemson, and they responded to that loss by closing out the regular season with eight straight wins.
They kept that red-hot run going as they won the ACC tournament, beating Georgia Tech 78-70, North Carolina 74-71 and Louisville 73-62.
Duke then began their quest for the national crown with a couple of blowout victories, beating Mount St Mary’s 93-49 and Baylor 89-66.
The Blue Devils followed that up by beating Arizona 100-93 in the Sweet 16, before advancing to the Final Four with an 85-65 victory over Alabama.
Houston Form
Houston go into this Final Four showdown on an even better win streak than Duke, having won their last 17 games.
The Cougars’ last defeat was an 82-81 overtime loss to Texas Tech on February 1, and they rebounded from that by ending the regular season with a 10-game tear.
They took that streak to 13 games as they claimed the Big 12 tournament, beating Colorado 77-68, BYU 74-54 and Arizona 72-64.
Houston cruised through the first round of March Madness, beating SIU Edwardsville 78-40, and then downed Gonzaga in the second round, 81-76.
The Cougars fended off Purdue to win their Sweet 16 clash 62-60, before booking their place in the Final Four with a 69-50 victory over Tennessee in the Elite Eight.
Verdict
Houston’s win streak is longer, but Duke are looking every bit the best team in the nation.
They are firing on offense, with Cooper Flagg leading the way, so we expect the Blue Devils to edge closer to the crown.
